Sometimes a few seconds were enough to ruin a peaceful morning and change plans, even if Phantom and Operator wanted to go into the Dead Lands to fight against monsters in the name of the Citadel.
Slowly, without breaking any traffic laws, obeying all the necessary regulations, the black car was moving along the Third Ring towards the Iron Observatory.
There were only three people in the car - Adam and Silvana were in the back seat, while Stina was in the driver's one, buckled in and holding the steering wheel with both hands.
Considering their speed their trip would be a long one, Adam didn't have that much patience especially given what Stina said earlier, so he decided to try to find out the details again:
"Hey, I realize you have no right to explain anything to us, but why did you inform us? I mean, it's usually government employees or military personnel who do this. But, you... you're a scientist at the observatory."
